The direct answer

A mail link depends on the customer's device having an email handler. It can be helpful without serving as the only contact route.

What to check

Activate the link in representative environments without sending a message. Check the visible address and any prepared subject for accuracy.

What to do next

Keep a copyable email address and another supported inquiry method. Avoid claiming that a mailto click proves message delivery or a completed lead.
